THE FACTS
To understand the reason for the great taste of Frozen Custard is to understand the ingredients required for it to be authentic. Frozen Custard must contain at least 10% butterfat and 1.4% egg yolk. Frozen Custard achieves its creaminess through a production process that produces less air and few ice crystals than traditional ice cream.

By comparison, traditional ice cream must also contain 10% butterfat. Greater richness of the traditional ice cream is often achieved by using higher percentages of butterfat. Some of the gourmet ice creams contain as much as 17% or more butterfat.

In addition, the amount of air beaten into Frozen Custard is about 20%. This percentage of air is called “overrun”. Traditional ice cream can have as much as 100% overrun. Or, in other words, the volume will double due to the amount of air in the final product. The more air the ice cream has, the coarser the texture of the ice cream due to the size of ice crystals. Because Frozen Custard has such a low “overrun”, there are few ice crystals in the product.

The result is an extremely clean and smooth taste sensation that is said to be creamier than ice creams that have a higher butterfat content.

People have been describing King Kone’s Frozen Custard as it “Looks like soft serve, tastes like silk!” We couldn’t agree more.
